The consideration is when handle rte_flow_action_rss, we still need to strip it 
out since this route will bypass the dev_configure or rss_update 
So there are two options
1, strip out at rte_flow_create , this relief all the PMDs, but code looks a 
little bit strange.
2. handled by PMD themselves 

Anyway both of the cases need this helper function be exposed by rte_ethdev.h, 
maybe we can define a macro named RTE_ETH_RSS_HF_REFINE?
